cpawonder is in the drivers seat as he finished Phase III at 23-7 as he won with the Marlins last night. He rattled off 7 in a row as he sat at 16-7 - his last 4 winners were the bottom feeders of baseball. Speedo lost a chance at winning Phase III as he took the Marlins as well, but he did wrap up the YTD bet as he ousted Govbarney and Action Boy.

Motherscratcher has to win his final two picks to force a Wednesday playoff. He has Toronto tonight and Miami on Wednesday. If Toronto wins tonight, cpawonder and Motherscratcher are required to submit their tiebreaker picks before the start of Wednesday's 1st game.

I don't know if I was glad or mad that you switched the pick, but I was happy in the end last night. I have never been forced to watch such bad baseball so intently. (Including Saturday night's 14 innings of misery. )

For the 3rd straight phase we are looking at a potential playoff. Motherscratcher must win with the Marlins to force a playoff. Same scenario as Phase II when Action Boy needed a Marlins win to force a playoff. The result was a Marlins loss to the Padres - what will the Marlins do today??

All tiebreaker picks must be submitted by 12:35 p.m. - the start of the 1st game.

Yeah, I took my pick off Monday be because they sat Josh Johnson for some schmuck, and Beuhrle was scheduled Wednesday. Then yesterday Beuhrle was nowhere to be found and all that was left was some super schmuck who wasn't good enough to be monday's schmuck.

I would always just make a pick and then check the next day to see what happened. My problems started when I started paying attention.

And congrads to speedo on winning the all three phases bet. Earl fell off the face of the earth 3 games into phase 1 and didn't pay for anything, so you win $660.

Get me your names and addresses fellas and I will get checks out tomorrow in the mail to you.

Another great year.

And BIG BIG ups to Action Boy for so ably administering this pool.

Speedo, if you want we can have Swerb paypal me and I will cash you.
